A Song of Ice and Fire/Game of Thrones Author George R. R. Martin Interview
This man is a genius, he let D&D ruin Game of Thrones so we will all buy the books to have the real end
Ive never thought about that lol
Actually he suggested d and d to make got upto 13 seasons its d and d who wanted to finish it in 7 seasons
He be dead
It could also backfire as people are so disappointed that they abandon the franchise. Show fans (especially those who watch it in a bar for reaction videos) disappeared faster than I thought. Because these fans only exist as long as the hype. Book fans however still talk about it, decades after the first book was published. You can only go so far after destroying the whole show with your lazy writing
D&D did 7 amazing seasons and now they’ve ruined GoT because of one season?
D&D: "We just decided not to write Bran at all... Then make him the most important character in the series."
They kinda forgot
he always was the most important character. the fans are just too dumb to notice.
so they get angry at D and D because of their own lack of thinking ability.
@@enhanced6892 Arranging the deaths of thousands of innocent people plus ruining the lives of people with a better claim to the crown even though they risked their lives trying to protect Bran may make Bran important, but not in a good way.
@@pplr1 that's what real life is like. check the history books.
@@enhanced6892 So you're happy with evil Bran the mass murdering king? If so then at least you are being honest about it. Though take away season 8 where he becomes that and he reverts to being among the most useless. EDIT: Correction a mass murdering Bran is still useless to most people-just not to Bran helping himself.
I really enjoy listening to this incredible man. Explains everything so well. No arrogance. Furthermore, he wants to share his knowledge and genius.
My man used 'furthermore' in a youtube comment
Vantheman12 3 dude is full of arrogance. Where you been? Incredible? You’re standards must be low lol
@@richardnelson7442 "You're standards must be low"
Yes yes he IS an incredible man...... I hear his urine cures cancer and aids
I’ve read he’s so incredible that his farts smell like blueberries too
Emily B. Lol
HBO could not write Bran either. He just sits in the chair an does nowt.
He's paralyzed......
@@madcap3450 hes a wizard.
@@paulgibbons2320 no he's not? He can see things happening and sometimes control animals (and Hodor), thats it
Paul Gibbons ikr
HBO can't even write Tyrion anymore. The latest episode was pretty good though and he finally had shit to do
Winds of winter is 90% bran POV confirmed.
Shame
The whole story is Bran POV. He's not Bran anymore. He's the Three-Eyed Raven and he is all-seeing! Every chapter is just someone Bran is spying on
@@muna5066 That theory doesn't hold up.
Fake news detected. There are sample chapters - first 170 pages around. Everyone interested can check for themselves.
Alexei Rayu did the joke go over your head? I said confirmed bran is 90% of the POV character because George can’t finish the book and said bran is the hardest to write.
Dude imagine living this guy’s life, he’s a passionate storyteller talking about his story in front of other people that are also massive fans of his story. To be in a room full of people that share the same love for story, but not just any story, YOUR story, that must be a wet dream for any storyteller or writer.
I imagine it's also sort of a nightmare as well, just like, well, many people having a wet dream in public would be a waking nightmare to them.
This is why he's taking so long to write the other books.Stop inviting him to all these events and let him write lol
GRAEME'S FITNESS lol he could just deny the request u can’t blame the event ppl for wanting him to come
@@jaytynan1282 It's a sarcastic joke.
@@jaytynan1282 pill
I truly believe he has winds of winter complete and he’s patient enough to wait until the tv show has completed. I personally am thankful if this is the case because I think the majority of the game of thrones community will enjoy the game of thrones story more on screen since HBO does such a great job in telling the story and making the character feel like they’re there.
Tijana _ Theres supposed to be another one after Winds of Winter, both like 1000-1500+ page books...
I thought Hodor was the easiest character to write.
not with that megalong foreshadow plot.
They’re talking POV characters
LOL
@benchmstr his whole life was just leading upto his death
Lol
We have to protect this man at all costs, he's the Tolkien of our generation. How lucky are we to be able to see his fantasy and legacy unfolds during our lifetime?
And seeing it burn to ashes on the TV show
yeah, so lucky. good thing his fantasy won't finish unfolding for another 20 years, we really get to savor it.
@@obsessivefangirl5055 It's not his fault!
nah man sanderson is the tolkien
GRRM is way overrated
Hey remember that time Bran was left out of the entirety of GoT Season 5? Such an important character to the showrunners. :P
Still the main character
Is it any coincidence that Season 5 is the definitive moment where the show started to tank? Also because Dumb and Dumber ran out of source material, like the bully who isn't allowed to copy the smart kid's homework aymore?
Had to give S6 some book material
They didn't really know what to do after adapting ASOS, S5 is a mess, S6 has its moments, S7 starts to show major cracks, and well S8 is just bad
@@Eisenbison they had 2 books left when S5 came out, they just adapted them together and changed them up a lot
(Granted they would've had to write out Tyrion, Dany, and Jon as well as Bran for S5 to just adapt AFWC and then for ADWD in S6 the KL plot wouldn't exist nor would there be Sansa or any of the Riverlands stuff from S5)
And there isn't a Red Wedding in the middle of the books like in ASOS to just split the stories accross 2 seasons
Hey Remember the time Bran, Jon, Dany and Tyrion were left out of the entirety of AsoIaF Book 4? Such important characters to Martin :P
0:17 Bran warged into the host
Devesh Belbase Lmao
Lol
WTF.. how does this one has only hundred likes..? this one deserves 10k.. lmaooo..
😂😂😂😂
When you see how detailed he is about characters it’s brilliant. GOAT 🐐
If you're going to write fiction you have to be in the minds of your characters, and the mind of a person is largely influenced by their physiology and brain development. That is vitally important to write well.
He's the dinosaur that eats the goat. That's the level I see him on.
@@villainova8941 More like the Dinosaur that eats the raptors.
Funny that your analogy quite accuratly matches how much time it takes for both events to happen (Rip goat and new book)
That's interesting because Bran is one of my favorite pov characters to read. He's got such a naivety and innocence to him with such high hopes of adventure and knighthood, and really gets excited more than ever when he talks about that kind of stuff like any other 8 year old boy would. But much like all of these characters, he's got the tragedy of realizing that he can't become that anymore. He makes the most with what he's got now, and even though it wasn't what he wanted originally, it's definitely cool and interesting to see him become enthralled in this magical world.
Sort of like Jaime after he loses his sword hand. He has to struggle with the new reality like Bran.
I always loved Bran. I'm glad I'm not the only one
Honestly, he was my least favorite lol. It boiled down to him complaining about not being able to walk/run and having Hodor carry him.
He had a magical dream, went north of the wall, and met the magical guy. And that's the sum of his entire storyline 😂 oh and he warged into Hodor
Please finish the books. HBO has destroyed the wit and wisdom of almost every character at this point.
The hound and Theon are the only ones that remained unscathed
@@moneykenny119 Jorah and Beric too
@@HassanKhan-sr2tq Jorah wasn't all that witty to begin with.. i see him more of a creepy old guy with the hots for a 13 year old girl most of the time (at least in the books)
D & D did that. HBO was willing to give them money for full 10 episodes for season 7 and 8 but the writers refused because they were bored with GoT and wanted to rush to work on Star Wars
S billings You'll be happy to know the two spinoffs that were confirmed were also both handed off to Jews.
All the characters are hard for D&D to write post season four.
True
Surprisingly, thats when they parted ways from the books
to be fair can't blame them this is the most difficult and complicated story even George still can't finish it after all this years.

She just fucking stared down the whole audience 😂😂😂

What on earth did I just read then see 😂 😂 😂 😂 😂!
It's amazing how Tyrion is the easiest to write, but his POVs are so amazing to read and he's undoubtedly my favourite character! ❤️✨
it might be because Tyrion is like GRRM. Sam is supposed to be most like GRRM though, according to him.
After watching this, I feel if GRRM had stayed with the project til the end, Bran would’ve had more to contribute. Especially during the war with NK.
There is no Night King in the books. Bran might have a very different role to play in the story.
Julie Gyselová oh well even that would’ve been a better storyline than the version we got 😂 thank you for clearing that up
@@KashWill9 Well, in the books we are at least sure he will have some role to play. 😀
Julie Gyselová yeah I’m officially off the show, so disappointing. Time to delve deep into the literature 🤓📖🐉 I’m so late lol
0:15 when you were playing on your phone and the teacher asks you to solve the problem
😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I don't know about the hardest, but the funniest had to be definitely Cersei. Imagine Martin, making us believe she was an intelligent villain, an actual mastermind, daughter of his father, just write her chapter like "nope, she's just super-duper crazy"
I think you mean "her father's daughter" - or did you mean to imply she's George's sister? ;-)
I certainly didn't think of Cersei as being a mastermind before her POVs lol. To me she was always just really vain and cruel
haha yeah, cersei is mad
The show rarely reaches the height of the books. Its just stellar story telling from an amazing writer. I wish he would finish i wish him health.
Bran is one of my favorite POVs. I like the character of Meera and some really remarkable things happen in his chapters, like the part where they hide inside a tower in The Gift and hear Jon passing by, the northen stranger in the cave and the Knight of the Laughing Tree story.
R. R. Martin: I kill my main characters
D & D: We kill them all
Here’s a guy with imagination, it’s a bummer that he didn’t write the last season. The season that actually counts
Actually season 7 was shit too, season 5 was not really good and season 6 was ok.
Deep Kikz He wrote none of those seasons.
@@finnbazz6315 who said that?
@@ciaochao1500 season 5 is from the books.
Everything is a copy of the real world, the map, the basic of the stories, damn even the names are stolen and twisted abit before implemented into the story. Not sure if imagination is the right word here...
He is speaking like God explaining creating each human and his story... How difficult or easy it was for him to write each human's story of life..
Ok now y'all are doing too much lol every writer talks this way about their characters
First 30 seconds that woman is possessed
Nick Y lol no. She’s just either reading a teleprompter or listening to some producers that came out to say something to her.
probably Bran wargs into her
😂
Nick Y I think she was looking for the next person with a question to ask.
Now I understand why Rickon Stark was such a superfluous character.

@@skyking0356 Exactly lol
@@sm6260 Bran is youngest

It's a bit of a surprise that Tyrion was the easiest character to write. This man doesn't cease to amaze me.
Bran is so hard to write, now, he becomes king
Look how absolutely locked in the audience is listening to this. Sign of a pure genius.
I really enjoy listening to this incredible man. Explains everything so well. No arrogance.
Bran's chapters, to me, are the saddest to read.
0:34 Joker: "Very poor choice of words"

If its hard for George to write Bran , then its beyond impossible for DnD.
Exactly xD
@@scottystcloud7086 Because he is quietly admitting he arranged the burning of King's Landing and the deaths of thousands of innocent people. Plus ruining Jon and Dany's lives after they had risked theirs to help protect his.

searching for prey
Just derping out a little. Give her a break :D
They really need to find a good charismatic geek to do these interviews

Apparently dark magic exists in that woman in the beginning.
Why was that lady making faces at 0:15 - 0:23
I think she was looking at something, or trying to see something
She probably has an in-ear microphone and someone on the crew was trying to signal something to her
Shade of the evening, my dudes.
She glitched out. She the illuminati
@@aks19880 haha 🤣🤣 indeed
Bran is still one of my favorites.
We love you George..
"They don't have any clothes on and they're wrestling you know" !
What a wonderfull way to say!!
That's basically what Brann's internal monologue was when he saw them
I love to wrestle with women
I feel for him.. I mean the reason Ned Stark's death, the red wedding or Hodor reveal etc were heart wrenching yet totally believable and made for excellent story telling were not because they were shocking.. That was the tip of the iceberg.. It was because we genuinely cared for these characters and this path although horrific and sad made sense. The harmony between the story and characters makes the plot work. It's poetry in motion.
In season 8, it was the equivalent of making the most delicious chocolate cake batter and putting it in the oven for 10s and serving it to the people.. it needed time d&d.. it needed time to bake.. you had everything else.. you had 7 good seasons (4 actually great, other 3 were between ok and good) and you rush past the ending.. wasted potential
I think tyrion lannister resembles George. After all tyrion is the one who interact with everyone and goes everywhere. Most importantly he is a good at judging people. Which make him the main character of the series.
*strangely*
Bran storyline is the best for me
Because his story explains the past & foreshadow the future
I really love when Bran tells Meera and Jojen about the gift. "This is the Gift. The New Gift, and north of that Brandon's Gift." Maester Luwin had taught him the history. "Brandon the Builder gave all the land south of the Wall to the black brothers, to a distance of twenty-five leagues. For their . . . for their sustenance and support." He was proud that he still remembered that part. "
Most authors make their children characters sound just like the adults. So george did great.
Tyrion is my favorite character in Game of Thrones I think he wrote about himself with that character how he would do something in that fantasy 🤔
Beautiful story and beautiful man
Thank God for this man and his talent.
I love how he didn't just jump into his own experience as a 9 year old.
Tormund is obviously the 'Hardest' character to write. 😂
This man is a Genius. All this going on in his mind to give us such a masterpiece of work.
just respect to this man
"Too much magic can overwhelm a fantasy." Totally agree, that's why I stayed away from the genre until GoT. I thought he struck the balance perfectly minus the reviving of characters.
I was thinking Sansa but Bran makes perfect sense
i like that he wears the same hat and glasses ⛑👓
This explains a lot.
I’m waiting for 10 years to pass before another group decides to make a new series of GoT. And hopefully those guys don’t screw it up as badly
His comment on magic is spot on.
No wonder the Tyrion chapters are so good. Although George is a genius writer I always find Bran chapters less captivating than the chapters of the other characters.
"so earlier you talked ABEWT"
As a D&D player, I didn't think twice about what he meant by the term phrase "low magic fantasy."
Insight check!
Never played a fantasy game or read much fantasy in my life and even i understood what he meant by that 😂 that lady needs help
I can't wait for Drogon the dragon's POV.
Bad human is threatening mommy.
Watching mommy.
Mommy say burn.
Me Burn Bad human.
Me hungry.
He is talking about difficulties that I would have never thought of...
His answer is immediate. I like that.
that would Dave Targaryen. Cousin sister's brother of Aerys and Rhaella
this man is a god
I love this man
My fave characters from the tv series are Ser Davos and Bran. I think Bran's journey is very underrated among the fans because he has little contribution to the main stories that happened around major characters like Dany and Jon. But i believe he is the key to defeat the antagonist in the end. I never read the book though. Plan to buy them next month to see how Bran is written in it.
This man is a genius. Almost feel sorry for d&d to try and capture his chaotical world in a neat tv series.... d&d could have done better, but i mean, they could've failed a lot better.
The last season was terrible. Just terrible. I dont think they took more than an day for the whole story of the season and they destroyed every character. Cant feel sorry for that amount of ignorance.
Don't consider myself a writer, however when I started being the dungeon master in tabletop rpg games I quickly fell in love with writing stories.
Low magic settings are by far imo the best and most rich.
I try to give a low magic setting to my campaigns but saddens me that all the players I come across are more fond of high fantasy settings.
Low fantasy demands a more mature audience and it's strange that one almost can't find that sense of maturity in rpg gamers even though most are already over 30 years old.
Some people even criticise DMs in pushing the low magic setting down their throats, when it's them that simply don't have the maturity to immerse themselves in a more realistic world.
I believe thats the very same reason SOI&F is less popular than GoT
tranglomango I wish we lived in the same city. I live in a small town and it's hard enough finding a D&D session to begin with, yet alone one with a DM interested in a more realistic world.
Low magic settings are no more "realistic" than high magic ones. Indeed the scarcity of that magic itself needs an explanation.
Sir-say. Everything is shattered.
Yes I can tell as I dread his pov chapters
Now we know why it was so difficult to write for Bran.
Wow! I didn't knew bran was hardest to write. I guess that's why he's my fav character bc I relate to him in a lot of ways and his povs are literally the best written i swear
Ooh so you also know everything and do nothing.
Tbh, Bran is the worst pov in all the books to me and it's not even close. Even people like Victarion at least have a personnality.
Nice to know that me having a hard time reading Bran corresponds to him having a hard time writing him
Okay, where are these magical interviews taking place and how do I get the opportunity to be there in person?
some thinks that Bran is the key to the whole plot, and that he is the one which made the Mad King mad and that he is the night king. Maybe that is why it is so hard for him to write his chapters, because there is a lot of the plot evolving around Bran.
Does somebody know there is the full interview with George?
This man is a genius 😍
Living legend
its like GRRM and D & D were writing an exam and GRRM was so long with his Bran answers that D & D just got lazy to copy bran answers
Varys and Littlefinger were the most complex characters for me. Sansa is developing very subtly .
Neither Varys nor Littlefinger are POV characters in the books though. It's been a while since I last read them, but I'm fairly sure.
Today I learned that Cercei is pronounced "SirSay". Thanks YT recs, very cool 👍
Fucking love this show
Is that host on LSD?
hbo show runners which character is the hardest to write.....bran, dany, jon, aariya, sansa, cerci, gendry, jaime, tyrion, we dont know what to do with any of them.......
G R R Martin lives through all age ranges and generations simultaneously.
Martin is the greatest writing mind in history he is a genius
I do not believe this genius and beautiful mind wanted Bran "the broken" (worst name ever) to be king of the "6" kingdoms
I mean.... the last book is called dreams of spring. Oh, and very interestingly, the first chapter proper of the series has bran surviving the “kingslayer” trying to kill him
i would not be surprised if its the same ending grrm constantly likes to not go with the norm danny or jon becoming the king/queen for example is cliche as hell and something you'd see in your average fantasy hero story not GOT,bran becoming king is totally in his wheelhouse it would obviously be way more developed in the books
“Bran the Broken” was used in one of Bran’s chapters in the first book. GRRM made it up, not D&D.
Bran will indeed be king, king of the north because king’s landing will be destroyed
@@cptmactavish3310
Yep but iirc it was Bran who called himself that way to let us know, the readers, that's how he felt. It was one of the saddest moments of Bran.
D&D used it to call that way to a fucking king. It's ridiculous...
Now this is a man with much weight in his industry. What I like about his world is that it is so wide and well developed. His characters are well rounded and his writing deals with heavy issues.
Was that a fat joke? xD
People need to check out the World Of Lone Wolf game books and novels that preceded Game of Thrones. Created and written by Joe Dever.
George needs more recognition. His BOOKS needs more recognition.
Um...you do realize that Game of Thrones is literally the most popular show in the world right? If that's not enough promotion for his books, I don't know what is. I legit don't think he can get more recognition. The recognition of the entire world is kind of the limit.
@@devoutrelic1228uhm have you read his books? The tv series are well known, but his books isn't. Most people think its called Game of Thrones but t's called A Song of Ice and Fire.
I think Bran hardest character to George because he know Bran will be the king in the end that's why take a lot of his time to write this character. George want Bran to be special
He is already special. He is the key to defeat the others. But yes, i think that way too. George wants to make Bran the perfect king, and is hard to begin with being Bran a child.
he George ovbiously finds all characters hard to write because since 2011 we still waiting for the new book
